Chapter 16 She Was Going on a Blind Date
What?
Alice and Laney both changed their expressions.

Margaret looked at Alice and pretended to be surprised, “No way, no way, didn’t Mr. Hawthorne tell you that he kissed me last night?”
Margaret spoke, recalling earnestly, “Last night, Mr. Hawthorne and I kissed. It was rough and clumsy, with no skill at all. His kissing technique was really poor, to the point where I even doubted if Mr. Hawthorne knew how to kiss at all.”
Alice looked at Samson in shock. He had actually kissed Margaret?
Samson’s handsome face turned completely cold, and it was unclear whether it was because she deliberately told Alice about their kiss or because she publicly criticized his poor kissing skills. In any case, his icy and intense gaze was fixed on Margaret.
“Margaret!”
He called her name unhappily.
Margaret sneered, “What, did he get upset just because Alice said a couple of words to him?”
Margaret’s clear eyes fell on Samson’s handsome face, “What’s the matter with you? Your kissing skills are so bad, I don’t even want to be with you for a minute. Let’s get divorced!”
Samson said, “…“.

Was Margaret crazy today?
Samson’s handsome features tightened into sharp arcs, “Alright, let’s go now!

Margaret got into Samson’s Rolls–Royce Phantom and sat in the back seat. Samson drove in the front, and the two of them headed towards the courthouse.
There was no sound in the quiet and luxurious compartment, and neither of the two people spoke.
Samson pressed his large hand, adorned with an expensive wristwatch, on the steering wheel and accelerated, changed lanes, and turned smoothly, performing a series of actions effortlessly. “Last night, who took you away?” he asked.
Last night…
These words tugged at Margaret’s nerves. “Last night, the man you brought wasn’t went to find someone else.”
my type.
I
Margaret added, “I went and found a man who was an excellent kisser.”
Samson’s fingers tightened around the steering wheel as he glanced warningly at the woman in the backseat through the rearview mirror. “Margaret, have you been constantly reminiscing about that kiss from last night, which is why you keep bringing it up?” Margaret, “…”

She looked at him defiantly and said, “It seems like you haven’t forgotten about that kiss last night. either.”
Samson said, .“.
***
He shouldn’t have asked her about last night.
He was being mouthy.
The atmosphere in the carriage became oppressive, with a strong smell of gunpowder.
At this moment, a melodious ringtone from a mobile phone sounded, indicating an incoming call.
It was from the Hawthorne family’s old house.
Samson pressed the button and the butler’s voice came through, “Hello, young master. These past few days, the old lady’s health has worsened again. She wants to see the young mistress and has been insisting on it. Please bring the young mistress home quickly.”
Samson’s handsome brow furrowed as he took Margaret to the divorce, the old lady wanted to see Margaret.
Samson turned the steering wheel and drove towards his old house.
Margaret immediately spoke up, “Where are you taking me?”
Samson said expressionlessly, “Grandma wants to see you. When you get to Grandma’s place, do you know what to do?”
Margaret felt ironic,
“Pretend to be
affectionate?
I couldn’t
pretend.”
Samson sneered, “Wasn’t pretending to be affectionate in front of Grandma something you used to enjoy doing?”
Margaret’s heart ached. The old lady was in poor health, and whenever they visited the old. mansion, Samson was always cold towards her, except when they pretended to be affectionate in front of others.
That was just her one–woman show.
Now it is still being brought out by him to mock.
Half an hour later, Margaret arrived at the Hawthorne family’s old mansion and happened to encounter Emilie Hawthorne coming out of the mansion.
Emilie was Laney’s daughter in the Hawthorne family, and she had a special bond with Alice.
Emilie saw Margaret and immediately showed disdain. “Margaret, Samson doesn’t like
you. Are you trying to curry favor with my grandmother again? The only person in the Hawthorne family who likes you is my grandmother! Just look at yourself, a country bumpkin who came here and married into the Hawthorne family while Alice was away. You are not worthy of Samson at all. You should divorce him quickly.”
Margaret had gotten used to the fact that Samson’s family, just like his friends, did not like her.
Margaret ignored Emilie and walked straight into the old mansion.
Sherlyn Hawthorne had silver hair all over her head. She happily held Margaret’s hand and said, “Maggie, why haven’t you come to see Grandma for several days? Don’t you miss Grandma?”
This was the only warmth Margaret received from the Hawthorne family, and Sherlyn liked her very much.

Margaret pursed her lips and gently hugged Sherlyn, “Grandma, of course I missed you.”
Sherlyn couldn’t stop laughing.
At this moment, Samson’s handsome and tall figure walked in.
Margaret let go of Sherlyn and said, “Grandma, you haven’t had medicinal food for several days. I will go prepare it for you.”
Margaret walked into the kitchen.
Samson sat next to Sherlyn, “Grandma.”
Sherlyn glanced at Margaret in the kitchen and asked, “Samson, did you have an argument with Maggie?”
Sherlyn was not feeling well, and Samson did not want to upset her. “No,” he said. “Why did Maggie hide in the kitchen when she saw you coming in? Maggie never used to do that before.”
“Samson, don’t let Alice deceive your mind. Three years ago, you became a vegetable, and Alice immediately left you and went abroad. It was Maggie who married you and took care of you.* “During the three years when you became a vegetable, Grandma suffered a great blow and her health deteriorated. Maggie not only took care of you, but also came to the old house to take care of me, preparing various herbal remedies for me. Without Maggie, our Hawthorne family would have fallen apart long ago.”
“Grandma never gets people wrong. Maggie is a good girl, a woman who wholeheartedly follows you. You must never let her down, because once a woman accumulates enough disappointment, she will leave, and once she’s gone, she won’t turn back.”
“Samson, you must not wait until you have lost it to regret.”
Samson looked up at Margaret in the kitchen. She had tied her pure black hair into a low ponytail, revealing her beautiful small face and swan–like fair neck. She looked unbelievably pretty.
The aroma of the medicinal cuisine she prepared quickly wafted out, carrying a bitter taste with a special fragrance. Samson felt that this taste was very familiar, as she had fed him a lot of medicinal cuisine over the past three years.
In fact, during these three years as a vegetative state patient, his consciousness was very clear, and he knew that there was a woman who had been by his side.
She had a pair of exceptionally soft hands that had once touched every inch of his body.
He thought it was Alice.
But when I opened my eyes, I saw her. She said her name was Margaret.
Sherlyn asked Samson and Margaret to sleep here tonight, and the two of them couldn’t refuse.
Samson walked into the room, Margaret had him on her back, holding a pen in her hand, not knowing what she was writing.
She had a voice message from her best friend Jordyn on her phone.
Jordyn said, “My dear Maggie, they are getting divorced. You shouldn’t be playing the role of a nanny anymore. Come out quickly, I have arranged a
I
blind date for you.”
